How far pregnant am I?!

Long story short, I took a pregnancy test yesterday as I've just been feeling a bit run down recently and sure enough it came back instantly (before the control line) with a very dark positive! I have very irregular periods and I am breastfeeding at the moment so no idea how far along I am. I have booked a private scan for Monday. Just now I dug out my home Doppler just on the off chance and I found the heartbeat! Only about an inch below my belly button!!!! What does this all mean? How far along do you think I am?

Placemarking!

Place marking.

I heard my baby's heart beat at a private scan at 9 weeks so you may not be in second trimester.

Dopplers really are not recommended by midwives. Id take it with a pinch of salt. Good luck though!

Talith · 10/09/2018 13:20

Gosh! How exciting. I'll go for 15+3. In all seriousness, I hope all is well x

I found out I was ph with dc4 at 11 weeks. It's amazing to 'skip' all that horrible first bit. Good luck at the scan!

TitsalinaBumSquash · 10/09/2018 13:23

Redtartanshoes · 10/09/2018 13:27

Drum roll..... Just seen a healthy, squiggly baby with a lovely strong heartbeat that's measuring 11 + 4!!

So Happy!!

But I obviously have no idea how to feel for a fundus or a heartbeat 😂😂😂

Better get on with booking myself in with a midwife!
